Interesting to see just how much of modern Horizon is already in place in the first title (the majority of it really).

Colorado is an... OK location in my opinion. Having dabbled a lot in later games, it feels like a combo of the mountains of Mexico and the motorways of the UK but with none of the charm of either, but it's still nice enough to race around. Although the environment not being destructible (i.e. not being able go knock down wooden fences) is very irritating so I'm glad this was changed in future entries.

I miss 60FPS, but load times on Series X are great thankfully.

Also, having a definite ending and credits is really nice, wish future titles stuck to this!

Anyways, I marathoned most of this game in one sitting. It's 5am, I've been playing since 7. I'm off to collapse in a puddle.
